FRAILTY ASSESSMENT IN OLDER ADULTS UNDERGOING TRANSCATHETER OR SURGICAL AORTIC VALVE REPLACEMENT: THE FRAILTY-AVR STUDY

FRAILTY ASSESSMENT IN OLDER ADULTS UNDERGOING TRANSCATHETER OR SURGICAL AORTIC VALVE REPLACEMENT: THE FRAILTY-AVR STUDY

Background Frailty is a core component of risk assessment in older adults referred for surgical (SAVR) or transcatheter (TAVR) aortic valve replacement; however, its integration in practice has been limited by a lack of consensus on how to measure it. [...]we sought to compare the value of 4 differe...

Zusammenfassung:Background Frailty is a core component of risk assessment in older adults referred for surgical (SAVR) or transcatheter (TAVR) aortic valve replacement; however, its integration in practice has been limited by a lack of consensus on how to measure it. [...]we sought to compare the value of 4 different frailty scales to predict short and long-term mortality after TAVR or SAVR.
